The current time is April of the 25th year of Jiajing, and there is still one year to go before the 26th year of Jiajing.

Lu Renbing had plenty of time to prepare. Pengcheng could reach the capital directly by canal, but there was enough time, and Lu Renbing decided to take the land route instead of the water route.

Mainly for the curiosity on the road, the scholars who are rushing to take the exam, and the fox encounters it, isn't it normal for the ghost to be in the chatting world?

What's the point of taking a boat, at most it's just a water ghost or something, it's not interesting.

Saying let's go, Lu Renbing went to the county government to issue a household sticker, a guarantee document and other supporting documents, went home and instructed the servants to take care of the house, and then went on the road with the book.

Lu Renbing gave himself a Leslie Cheung version of Ning Caichen's shape, fantasizing that he could meet a merry female ghost along the way.

It's a pity that he took a passerby's script, and there was no romance at all. He didn't think his whereabouts were secretive, and before he left the door, he was blocked by relatives and friends who got the news.

A person who moves someone to Beijing to take the exam is a big thing for his family, his neighbors, and his friends. It's impossible to get on the road quietly.

Helplessly, Lu Renbing, who was scolded by the patriarch, had to go home and put down the book. first solemnly opened the ancestral hall to pay tribute to the ancestors, and then went to the grave of the father and mother.

Then he went home and held a banquet to entertain his neighbors and friends. This is certainly not a celebration, but a collection of money!

Relatives and friends are not here to eat a meal for him, but to add to his plate.

The squires in the county, the messengers in the yamen, and the people with heads and faces on the street all came to pay their respects, and even the county magistrate, the county lord, and the master book were also presented by Cheng Yi, not to mention the wealthy merchants and tenants who were dedicated to Lu Renbing's family.

Otherwise, Lu Renbing thinks things too simply, this is the world of chatting and the world of personal love. His predecessor, Lang Yuzhu, had received the blessing of his father's connections, and he had also been taken care of by his clansmen and neighbors.

In this era, it is not an easy task to produce a scholar in the locality, it is the result of the support of the family, and when you become an official, you have to give back to the neighbors.

Lang Yuzhu's father's family is poor, and it is with the help of neighbors, clansmen, relatives and friends that he can have the money to pass the exam all the way. Otherwise, how could he be a poor scholar, I am afraid that he would have starved to death a long time ago.

Therefore, behind every Jinshi lifting people, there is a group of people supporting them, don't try to get rid of these human accidents.

Fortunately, everyone knows that Lang Yuzhu is a nerd and does not understand human accidents. The idea that he wanted to sneak away was also regarded as an anecdote and did not care.

Wang Youning, who came to add gifts, also had to make a few jokes. Lu Renbing dared to guarantee that his troubles, this Wang Youning, would definitely be publicized everywhere. Maybe he hasn't set off yet, and his younger brother Prince Fujia in Jucheng may know.

It has been busy for four or five days before I can be considered busy with these human exchanges. In the past few days, the old patriarch Lu Ren Bingbei has taken it, and I don't know how many times he has done and how many nods.

But everything is still quite cost-effective, the old patriarch took a thick gift account from the account room and handed it to Lu Renbing.

"Well, all the accounts are here, and no matter where you go in the future, you have to take this account with you, and it will have to be repaid."

Lu Renbing could only nod yes, looking at the thick account book, his head was big for a while. There are just too many people giving gifts.

There are 100 taels of gifts, a few pieces of bacon, and a basket of vegetables.

The carriage and horse received two pairs, as well as the servants of the Song family, but Lu Renbing qualified and refused. There are also people who want to loosen their own children as companions, and the scholar's was rejected by Lu Renbing.

He made up his mind that he was going to take the exam on foot, and he didn't want others to suffer, so others would just give up. Thinking that my brother's own children are looking for a future, Feng Lu Renbing is not too late to become a jinshi.

Lu Renbing calculated for a long time, and probably collected about 2,000 taels in cash, and the rest of the odd copper coins had to be 180 yuan.

Lu Renbing was planning how to go outside, without exposing his space, when he carried the money, someone came to the door.

If you want to talk about any era, there are those good people who specialize in solving people's worries.

Wang Youning led a businessman to visit. This person is dedicated to solving the problem of money exchange for people.

Lu Renbing read the bailout he brought, and the seal on it showed that his background was extraordinary. has a relationship with Wang Youning, so Lu Renbing happily left fifty taels of change for this cumbersome money, and handed over the rest to others to deal with.

The treasure money of the Ming Dynasty has long been rotten on the street, and there is no credit at all. Now the Ming Dynasty does not have a money bank that connects the world.

But in wealthy places, there are local money bank ticket numbers. The money tickets they issue themselves are still easy to use locally.

And the broker in front of him has money tickets from all over the world in hand, which can be exchanged according to the needs of customers, and the most important money ticket is, of course, the money ticket in Beijing.

This is the money village of the Hui people in Beijing, and the person holding the bill can redeem the silver taels when he arrives in Beijing. It's just that the pumping is relatively high.

Lu Renbing didn't have a specific itinerary, so the two large parts of the silver and two copper coins were exchanged for money tickets in the capital.

After the man gave Lu Renbing a money ticket, he also gave him a document, something similar to an iron seal, saying that it was a secret deposit, and it would be used when he went to the capital to pay for it.

Because there are very few records of the financial industry in the Ming Dynasty in historical materials, people in later generations basically do not know how the money industry in the Ming Dynasty carried out the exchange business.

After sending Wang Youning away, Lu Renbing had an extra stack of money tickets in his hand, which were always made of mulberry paper, which felt good and the printing was also very exquisite. The maximum denomination is 100 taels, and the smallest is 10 taels. Shiwen's, of course, Lu Renbing asked for it out of curiosity.

In the last world, he developed the habit of collecting coins, and when he saw rare coins, he always had the desire to collect.

Finally finished a mess at home, Lu Renbing once again told the servant women at home to keep the house, especially his books.

The next morning, he carried the book on his back, bid farewell to the people who had come to see him off, and set out on his way.

I can finally be a chic Ning Caichen, Xiaoqian, I'm here.

Lu Renbing faced the rising sun and ran wildly, making the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone in the book, and there was a clang. Yan Ruyu, who was hiding in the book, secretly scolded this nerd and became nervous.

"However, who is Xiaoqian, you must ask when you have time." Yan Ruyu thought wonderingly.

It's not that Yan Ruyu can't see the light, it's just that she seems to be hiding from someone, and only by hiding in a book will she not be discovered. If you want to walk freely, you can only do it in a place full of books like Lang Yuzhu's study.

Lu Renbing asked her why, she thought that Lu Renbing had not yet been lifted, and he had no power to protect himself in the face of those people, so he told him to increase his troubles.

Lu Renbing didn't ask anymore, anyway, he would know about it sooner or later, so why bother. He has a lot of things to do, and he cares about everything, and sooner or later he will die of exhaustion.
